To study the water-entry impact noise, on-board experiment using a small launcher firing various objects was performed in the Yellow Sea. As the launcher fires a cylindrical object from the ship vertically, generated noise is measured with a hydrophone on the starboard of Chung-hae, Marine surveyor. Three types of cylindrical objects, which have noses of flat-faced, conical, and hemisphere, were used during the experiment. The measured noise exhibits a time-dependency which can be divided into three phases: (1) initial impact phase, (2) open cavity flow phase, (3) cavity collapse and bubble oscillation phase. In most cases, the waveform of bubble oscillation phase is dominant rather than that of initial impact phase. Pinch-off time, where a cavity begins to collapse, occurs at 0.18 ~ 0.2 second and the average lasting time of bubble was 0.9 ~ 1.3 second. The energy of water-entry impact noise is focused in the frequency region lower than 100 Hz, and the generated noise is influenced by the nose shapes, object mass, and launching velocity. As a result, energy spectral density on the bubble frequency is higher in the order of flat-faced, conical, hemisphere nose, and the increase of initial energy raises the energy spectral density on the bubble frequency in the cylinder body of same shape. Finally, we compare the measurements with the simulated signals and spectrum based on the bubble explosion physics, and obtain satisfactory agreements between them.

This paper addresses a newly proposed start-up method of the HAUSAT-2 momentum wheel. The HAUSAT-2 is a 25kg class nanosatellite which is stabilized to earth pointing by 3-axis active control method. A momentum wheel performs two functions. It provides a pitch-axis momentum bias while measuring satellite pitch and roll attitude. Pitch control is accomplished in the conventional way by driving a momentum wheel in response to pitch attitude errors. Precession control and nutation damping are provided by driving the pitch axis magnetic torquer. A momentum wheel is nominally spinning at a particular rate and changes speed. This simulation study investigates the feasibility and performance of a proposed strategy for starting-up the wheel. A proposed strategy to start-up the wheel shows that a pitch momentum wheel can be successfully started-up to its nominal speed from rest and be stabilized to nadir pointing.

It is very difficult to achieve sufficient data rate and required quality of service due to the time-varying nature of the radio channel and various jammers such as path loss, delay, Doppler, shadowing and interference. Especially, the propagation path between the transmitting antenna and the tracking antenna mounted on the fuselage during the test and evaluation of the projectile system considered in this paper is based on the rapid movement of the projectile, the interference due to multipath fading due to the terrain, The propagation path may be blocked. In order to effectively improve the multipath fading occurring in the wireless communication system, a diversity combiner technique is required. In this paper, to derive the design and improvement schemes for the space diversity combiner technique among the diversity combiner schemes, the BER performance of maximum ratio combining (MRC) and selection combining (SC) In an adaptive SC / MRC diversity combiner that operates with MRC when it is lower than the specified threshold criterion when comparing the SNR between two signals received from the channel and operates with SC at high and combines the two received signals The BER performance of the system was compared and analyzed.

All solid rocket propellants are divided in two basic classes according to chemical state: homogeneous(double base) and heterogeneous (composite). Today, composite propellants are extensively used as power sources covering the range from gas generators and small rocket systems to large launch vehicles in space programs. The development of composite rocket propellants in the past was mainly directed to thermoset polymers. But, the thermoset composite propellants have the complication in formulation and fabricating process to adapt to rocket system requirements. In contrast to the thermoset propellant, the PVC plastisols composite propellants have the advantages in the view of loss in manufacturing process, low cost of raw material, and stability of the handling process even though moderate ballistic and mechanical properties. It is predicted that the application field of this class will be used more widely than any other classes.

TRIO-CINEMA(TRiplet Ionospheric Observatory-Cubesat for Ion, Neutron, Electron & MAgnetic field)는 지구근접공간에서의 미세 자기장 변화 및 중성입자의 검출을 목적으로 경희대학교와 UC Berkeley가 공동 개발하는 초소형위성이다. 초소형위성은 내부 공간이 협소하여 효율적인 공간배치 및 위성체발사 시 진동에도 견딜 수 있도록 harness가 제작되어야 한다. CINEMA는 OBC, EPS, 배터리, 수신기, IIB(Instrument Interface Board), MAGIC(MAGnetometer Imperial College) board, HVPS(High Voltage Power Supply)로 구성된 avionics bus와 MAGIC, STEIN(Supra Thermal Electron, Ion, Neutral)의 payload, Solar panel, UHF와 S-band 안테나로 구성되어 있다. Solar panel에서 생산된 전력은 EPS를 통해 배터리에 저장되고 PC104를 통해 avionics stack의 각 board로 전력이 분배된다. IIB는 탑재체 파트와 연결되어 이를 제어하고 HVPS에서 STEIN에 공급되는 고전압은 특수 와이어를 통해 연결되며 UHF 안테나와 S-band 안테나는 RF 케이블로 수신기와 송신기가 연결되어 있다. 각각의 harness는 케이블타이와 lacing tape로 위성체와 고정되며 커넥터는 고정 지지대를 제작하여 나사로 체결하였다. CINEMA에 적용된 harness는 진동시험과 열진공시험을 통해 harness와 시스템의 안정성이 검증 되었다.

Reliability estimation methods using attribute data are widely used in reliability evaluation of various systems such as nuclear energy plants, food and drug, and space launch vehicles. This paper shows sensitivity analysis and comparison results of reliability estimation methods including a parametric estimation method in open literature with respect to both sample size and sampling points of time. And ways to improve accuracy of each reliability estimation method were proposed from the sensitivity analysis results.

In this study, nonlinear flow-induced vibration(flutter) analyses of a 2-DOF launch vehicle airfoil have been conducted in supersonic and hypersonic flow regimes. Advanced aeroelastic analysis system based on computational fluid dynamics and computational structural dynamics is successfully developed and applied to the present analyses. Nonlinear unsteady aerodynamic analyses considering strong shock wave motions are conducted using inviscid Euler equations. Aeroelastic governing equations for the 2-DOF airfoil system is solved by the coupled integration method with interactive CFD and CSD computation procedures. Typical wedge type airfoil shapes with initial angle-of-attacks are considered to investigate the nonlinear flutter characteristics in supersonic(15). Also, the comparison of detailed aeroelastic responses are practically presented as numerical results.

위성시스템 소형화, 탑재체 수용증대, 발사비용절감, 탐사임무 효율화 등의 요구로 인하여, 위성 설계에 있어 경량화는 오랜 기간 진행되어온 연구 주제였다. 이러한 연구결과로서, 위성 구조체를 복합재료로 대신하기 위한 구조 경량화 연구와 적용이 성과를 거두었으며, 현재 위성체 프레임이나 전개형 안테나, 광학구조물 등에 경량 탄소섬유 강화 복합재료의 적용은 보편화되어 있다. 한편, 위성시스템에서 전력, 통신, 명령/데이터처리, 자세제어 및 관측기기의 각종 전자장비를 보호하는 하우징 구조물에는 여전히 금속재료가 광범하게 적용되고 있다. 특히, 알루미늄 합금은 하우징 재료로 널리 사용되는데, 강도, 강성, 열전달, 우주방사, 전기전도도 및 EMI 차폐특성과 더불어 가공성이 우수하다는 장점을 지닌 반면에, 금속재료로서 중량이 상당하여 위성 경량화 관점에서는 한계를 갖게 하는 단점이 있다. 전자장비에 부여된 전자기능 측면에서 보면, 하우징은 기생 구조물로서, 경량으로 제공될수록 전자장비 전체 무게에서 전자유닛만의 무게가 차지하는 전기전자기능비가 향상되고 위성 경량화에 크게 기여할 수 있다. 구조 경량화를 위하여 전자장비 하우징을 경량 복합재로 대체하여 설계 및 제작하였으며, 복합재 하우징의 강도, 강성, 열전달, 우주방사, 전기전도도 및 EMI 차폐를 검증할 수 있는 방법에 대하여 검토하였다.

Electric pump system is new technology for next generation propulsion unit. The system has simple structure which dose not need gas generator, injector and turbine and might better pump for low cost and low payload rocket. Therefore, this paper suggests conceptual design of electric-pump Permanent-Magnet Synchronous Motor (PMSM) which has 50 kW & 50,000 RPM for rocket. To satisfy the system's requirement, electromagnetic analysis is conducted for suitable inner and outer diameter of stator and rotor which uses 4000 Gauss cylinder magnet and Inconel 718 can to fix whole rotor. Futhermore, to confirm rotational vibration, rotordynamics analysis is conducted. By this analysis, Campbell diagram is printed. From the diagram, natural frequency could be determined for the only motor and dynamo meter test bench.
